SummaryRental market tightening, rents accelerating (but yields still low) – pressure on supply.

Weakening financial and economic environment to continue to impact on purchaser confidence.

Improved affordability not expected to gain traction until 2009/10, as economic conditions stabilise.

Affordability to remain constrained, despite recent reductions in interest rates– price rises to be more aligned with wages growth.
